Quadrille's history of the mod;
The mod was started in the autumn of 2004, with the first discussion and tossing of ideas taking place in a thread at totalwar.com. The main reason of the mod's death was a general loss of motivation for most of us. This was partly due to the announcement of medieval 2 and the realization that we'd never finish it before the release of that game.

Jubal;
I was shocked. I LOVED the beta. I learned to mod, spent about 2-3 months on it, then went a month on TWC to test the waters, then went public. I ported the 1.2 version to 1.5, and this is what you will see now.
